Toby was a 13-year-old boy. He studied in a middle school in Paris. He was quite a clever boy and was good at almost everything. However, he had a problem. He had a fear (恐懼) of heights. This problem made him unhappy for a long time. He talked to his father about it one day.

“I’ve had enough, Dad,” he said. “I would love to go rock climbing with my friends. But every time I get too high, I feel afraid.”

“well, Toby,” he said quietly, “I can help you. But you will need to be brave. Are you ready?”

“we’re going into the city!” his father said.

“Can I really do this?” he asked worriedly.

“Well,” his father said, “I will be with you every step of the way. This is the day that you fight your fear! Come on!”

Toby took a breath. His father held his hand and then they made their way, step by step, towards the top of the Eiffel Tower. At last they got to the top.

“Wow, Dad!” he said excitedly as he looked over Paris.

閱讀下面短文，根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容完成句子。

Have you ever thought about making a bicycle that you dream of? Some creative people have invented some special bicycles. Here are three of them.

Bambikes

Bambikes are produced in a company in Philippines. They are made of an unusual kind of bamboo and other materials like metal and a local plant. They are very strong. And they are a perfect combination (結(jié)合) of the greenest building material and common bicycles. By making bambikes, the company offers jobs to the local people. Besides, it provides money for some students in its community to pay for their study. To continue the production, the company plants more bamboo than it cuts.

The heaviest bicycle

A German cycling lover, Frank Dose, has recently made the world’s heaviest bicycle with big old wheels and lots of other waste materials. He created it just because he made a bet (打賭) with his friend. The bicycle weighed 1.08 tones. It broke the world record of its kind in weight. Frank said his bicycle was surprisingly easy to ride although it had a huge size and weighed a lot. He rode it in front of 5,000 people for over 100 meters to prove it.

Twisted (變形的) bicycles

Two brothers in France created a bike that looks strange to ride and twists in the middle. Riders can make tight turns (急轉(zhuǎn)彎). The brothers say the bicycle is hard to ride so it can stop people from stealing it. In fact, it isn’t as hard to control as you think. It takes a day or two to get used to the crazy way of riding. It’s amazing. So far, there have been 30 of the bicycles, but they are not for sale yet.

1.Some creative people _______some special bicycles.

2.Bambikes are made of an unusual kind of bamboo and other materials, such as ______.

3.The company plants more bamboo than it cuts in order ______.

4.Frank Dose created the world’s heaviest bicycle just because of _____.

5.Two brothers in France created ______and twists in the middle.
